Chapter 94: Expedition

On November 16, the 17th year of Chongzhen, Beijing, the cold wind gusted, and the proud plum began to bloom.

Normally, many people would hide in the house in such cold weather, but today, there is no one in the house.

Hundreds of civil and military officials, men, women and children, and the people of the whole city came to Yongdingmen.

The emperor once announced in the Daming Daily that Chongzhen set out on November 16 in the 17th year of Chongzhen, urging all localities to exterminate the rebellious ministers and thieves Li Zicheng, Zhu Yousong, Zhu Changshu!

Today is November 16, and the people of the whole city have gone to Yongding Gate early to wait.

The emperor who was assigned to the field was grateful to the emperor, worried that the emperor was gone, and their field would be taken back. The hated emperor who was confiscated also followed to see if Chongzhen was really going to "send him to death"!

As soon as the hour arrived, the winter sun rose, and the army came to Yongdingmen to assemble.

Five thousand Tianzi guards, one with two war horses, carrying a strange "fire gun", stood majestically in front of the war horses!

Behind Tianziwei were fifty craftsmen from the Ordnance Bureau, one hundred female soldiers of the Art Troupe, and five hundred miscellaneous servants, all of whom were also equipped with two war horses!

...........

Chongzhen authorized his relatives to see off the families of the artisan female soldiers, and compared with the worries of the families, the craftsmen and the female soldiers were not worried at all, but they were still very excited!

Maybe because they are all young and vigorous and have lofty ideals, they are not going to fight, but to save the world!

Of course, it's because it's the gun they've seen the Son of Heaven!

A woman took a craftsman's hand and said, "Nian Lang, you have to be very careful when you are out on the expedition!" I'm waiting for you to come back safely! ”

The craftsman said triumphantly: "Shufen, don't worry, Tianziwei's gun was made by me, but it's amazing!" When I come back, the emperor will give us a marriage! ”

An eldest lady reluctantly said to a female soldier: "Girl, my mother is poor and can't afford to eat, so I let you go to the art troupe to be a female soldier, and now I want to go out to fight, my mother can't bear it, but the emperor is very kind to our family, so I can only wronged you!" ”

The female soldier said disapprerovingly: "Mother, what nonsense are you talking about, not everyone can be a female soldier!" Tianziwei's gun is powerful and can hit hundreds of feet away, no one can get close to us! ”

............

Chongzhen's side.

All the civil and military officials said to Chongzhen: "The ministers wish the emperor a triumphant return as soon as possible!" ”

Chongzhen replied: "Definitely, during my expedition, there will be all the adults who will be in charge of the country!" ”

Zhu Cihong choked up and said to Chongzhen: "Father, the carriage and horses are tired, you must take care of the dragon body!" ”

Chongzhen replied: "Hong'er, your father is not here, you must remember what your father said to you." Just run a good school! ”

Chunrou hugged Chongzhen and said reluctantly: "Your Majesty, you must be well, the concubines are waiting for you to come back......"

Xie Shanshan Xie Tingting: "Sister Chunrou, don't worry, the emperor and our sisters will protect you!" ”

Chongzhen: "Chunrou, when I come back, I will make you a concubine!" ”

Xie Shanshan Xie Tingting: "Your Majesty, what about us?" ”

.............

Most of them were marching for the emperor's army, but there were a few discordant voices in the crowd!

"You said that the emperor took such a few people, isn't this going to die? These soldiers were captured! ”

"Where is the emperor going out to fight, it's obviously to go to the mountains and rivers, have you ever seen anyone fighting with so many women!"

"I think the emperor went out for a walk and came back......"

"Shut your stinky mouth, the emperor will divide the land for you, give you food and clothing, and now the emperor is going to go on an expedition, you are here to speak coldly, are you worthy of the emperor?"

Plainclothes Jinyiwei heard the discordant voice, and immediately reprimanded those people, although Chongzhen went on the expedition, but the capital is full of Jinyiwei, and he knows all the actions in the capital!

"That's it, I really should have pulled you out to give it to Li Zicheng!"

"The emperor is going to go on an expedition, these people are disrespectful to the emperor and Tianziwei, so just pull them out to sacrifice the flag!"

"Yes, pull them out to sacrifice the flag!"

When the gossipy people saw that they had provoked the anger of the people, they did not dare to speak anymore, but it was too late, they had already been pushed out by the angry people!

Jin Yiwei escorted the gossipy people to Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, these people criticize the emperor and Tianziwei, and they were blasted out by the angry people, you see how to deal with it." ”

Those people were so frightened that their faces turned white, "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life!" ”

I talked about it quietly, and I was pushed out!

"Your Majesty, what should you do with these three people?"

"Ignore the crumbs! Just let them watch from the sidelines! "Chongzhen doesn't want to ruin the atmosphere because of these three miscellaneous pieces!

"Bring the wine and give it to the soldiers!"

The palace maids carried out a hundred jars of special wine, and poured them full for every Tianziwei, craftsman, female soldier, and logistics who went out on the expedition.

Chongzhen spoke to the hundred officials who saw him off and the Tianziwei who went on the expedition: "The people of the world have been suffering for a long time, and the heavens can't bear it. Today, I personally lead 5,000 Tianziwei, 50 craftsmen, 100 female soldiers, and 500 miscellaneous soldiers, and follow me to drive and personally march! I respect all the soldiers who went out with me! ”

Tianziwei and the female craftsmen all raised their bowls and cups and drank them all!

"Heavenly Guards, you say, can we win!"

"Victory! Win! ”

The three critics thought that Tianziwei was forced to go on the expedition, but when they heard these Tianziwei actually say that they would win, they were all saying in their hearts: crazy, crazy, these people are crazy!

Many people have only heard of Tianziwei's artifact in Daming Daily, but few people can see it with their own eyes, and those who have seen it with their own eyes are stunned by the range of the gun, and they go back and blow it randomly, and those who listen to it don't believe it.

In order to reassure the people that their children went on the expedition, and in order to make the people in the capital who were plotting against each other to cause chaos, the last program before the expedition was the shooting of Tianziwei.

Chongzhen asked the palace ladies to put the empty wine jar five hundred steps away, and the onlookers didn't know what the emperor was going to do.

I saw the emperor ordering to Tianziwei: "Tianziwei, prepare!" ”

The Heavenly Guards all raised their guns and aimed them at the wine jar!

"Shoot!"

I saw that all the wine jars were blooming!

"Oh my God! This bird is so powerful, it can hit so far! ”

"Sure enough, it's a god-given artifact! A godsend! ”

"No wonder the emperor dares to bring only 5,000 people, even if he brings 1,000 people, he can also calm the world!"

The crowd praised it!

"A few miscellaneous people just said that I am not going to war, I am taking women to visit the mountains and rivers. These female soldiers are not ordinary women, these are female soldiers who fought for the people of the Ming Dynasty! I swear to the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty here: Zhu Youzhen's trip will not win! ”

"No win, no return!"

"No win, no return!"

Tianziwei craftsmen and female soldiers and miscellaneous servants all shouted slogans loudly!

"Let's go!"

......

Why November 16?

Because on this day, Zhang Xianzhong founded the country in Chengdu, called himself the king of the west, the country was called Daxi, and the yuan was changed to Yiwu.

Why go out in person?

5,000 people took guns to protect me, went to the mountains and rivers, and pacified the world by the way, why not!
